We’re back with Bay area crate digger, dj and musician, Derek See – the man behind the long-running ode to the 45 RPM record, Derek’s Daily 45. Psychedelia, garage, freakbeat, acid rock – call it what you will; it’s the music of young people in an era of chemical experimentation and social exploration. Most of the tracks presented here were recorded between 1966-68, a few earlier, a few later. All cuts sourced from See’s personal collection of 45s.

awesome, thanks for this!
This mix is AMAZING. Any chance of .flac files? Thanks for curating!
no.
I’m looking forward to hearing all of this, Derek, but I especially wanted to thank you for posting two of my all-time favorites…the Five Americans track is a killer and, being an Ann Arbor guy, I have a soft spot for Scott Morgan and the Rationals. This is my favorite record of theirs, too often overlooked on the flipside of their almost-hit cover of “Respect”
Much obliged…
Always a boost.
